August 2020 Newsroom

August was a critical month for Philabundance’s hunger relief efforts. The organization acted quickly to ensure Eastwick community members had access to food after Hurricane Isaias caused massive floods. Media helped Philabundance announce the return of inperson food drives after a five-month halt due to the pandemic. The end of the month brought covered smiles to clients across the region when students donated PPE masks to Philabundance partner agencies on the front lines. Check out some of August’s press highlights!
